Title:
  Please backport UbuntuDistroInfo().get_all(result="object") to Xenial

Status in distro-info package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm working on a update to software-properties in 16.04 to support the
  Ubuntu Pro tab. This work has already been released to >=18.04 (e.g.
  check Pro commits to https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-
  dev/software-properties/+git/software-properties/+ref/ubuntu/bionic),
  but Xenial didn't receive a backport. Could you please procure that?

  The commit in question is "Show extended security maintenance status"
  which adds:

  ```python
  def current_distro():
      distro = aptsources.distro.get_distro()
      di = distro_info.UbuntuDistroInfo()
      releases = di.get_all(result="object")
      [...]
  ```

  This was added in distro-info 0.15 and 0.16.
